      Obituary

      Francis Michael Flood
      April 12, 1926 ? September 29, 2020
      It is with sadness we announce the passing of Francis Flood, beloved husband and father of eight children, in his 95th year.
      Francis was born in Cochrane, Ontario to James and Nora Irene Flood. He is predeceased by his sister Margaret, and his brothers, Tom and Mac, as well as his eldest son Sean. The Flood family moved to Hearst, Ontario before Francis started school. Growing up in Northern Ontario with a father who worked for the railway, Francis grew up with a love of trains and the outdoors.
      Francis obtained an Honours Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Toronto and married Isobel Jordan in 1950. They raised four daughters (Dawn, Maureen, Veronica, and Elizabeth) and four sons (Sean, Francis, Eugene, and Emmett) and were married for a remarkable 69 years.
      Francis?s first career was in the electronics industry and radio broadcasting. However, wanting to spend more family time in the summers, he transitioned to a second successful career as a school teacher, with his longest tenure being as head of Guidance at Martingrove Collegiate in Etobicoke.
      Francis?s love of the outdoors was evident in pursuits such as Canada wide family camping trips, hiking on the Bruce Trail, cross-country skiing, bird watching, and gardening with Isobel. He and Isobel also enjoyed round dancing, square dancing, and ballroom dancing. Known for his intellectual abilities and love of discussion, Francis remained an avid educator his entire life. He assisted with community projects, volunteer work and counselling. Francis and Isobel were also long-standing members of the Franciscan Order and were honoured in 2019 for their 60 years of faithfulness.
      Francis is survived by his wife Isobel, seven of his children, nine grandchildren, eight great-grandchildren and many close nieces and nephews.
